Not a password, but a combination. And you did not mention the final part -- always go to zero before trying to open.
That probably should have read:
1) 3 times left past 53 and then continue to 53.2) Then two times right past 03, and continue to 03.
3) One time past left 65, and then continue to 654) Then go right to 00 (zero).
On some of the locks -- (S&G for example), once you are at zero, turn the little bar in the middle of the dial knob clockwise, and rotate the knob clockwise (right) until it stops (something a little less than a quarter turn).
With the Mosler which used to be on the security file cabinets, there was not the bar in the middle of the knob, so after reaching zero, just continue in the same direction until the knob stops. (Also, less than a quarter turn until it stops, IIRC.) It's been about 25 years since I last opened one of those Mosler locks.
Note that if you know what you are doing you (or a locksmith) can change the combination to what you want. But you have to be able to open it first, to gain access to what you need to work on. :-)
FWIW -- both images are claimed to have errors, and will not display.
Good Luck, DoN.
